could have hoped for. Norah cried a little when I dropped her off and cried each time the doorbell rang (twice) for kids that were picked up before she was. I'm sure she'll realize very soon that Lina's house is way more fun than I am. Either that or she'll be conditioned to cry at the sound of a doorbell for the rest of her life. This was the first time I've started one of the kids in a new place that I didn't cry. When we came out the front door this morning I yelled, "It's Adlani's first day of preschool!! Woo-Hoo!!!" The neighbors were cracking up. As you might expect, he wasn't all that cooperative for his first day of school picture. On the bright side, he was out cold by 7 p.m.My big problem of the moment is what the heck to put in Adlani's lunch box. He will only eat hot dogs, chicken nuggets (preferably from McDonalds because the others "have too much chicken inside"), and pizza. None of those are that appetizing after sitting in a lunch box for 4 hours. He ate a hot dog and a half today but the leftovers were in a thermos full of icky grease. The cut up pears came home in both lunch boxes because they were "too squishy". Aliya ate 4 crackers for snack because the cheese was also "too squishy" by afternoon-snack-time. I'm at a loss. I'm sure the other moms are sending in smiley-face snacks made of organic veggies layered on soy-nut-butter on whole wheat bread, with little notes of love and encouragement. My kids' Thomas and Bratz lunchboxes are full of snack-sized bags of mini muffins and fishie crackers. How am I going to explain that there's no money for college because I spent it all at BJ's?
